Benefits of technology

The invention is a disposable absorbent article that includes a sheet-like water absorbent layer that contains water absorbent resin powders but does not contain pulp fibers, and a fiber assembly layer that mainly consists of the pulp fibers. The sheet-like water absorbent layer has alternating regions where the water absorbent resin powders are wrapped and non-wrapped. The article also includes rising flaps on both sides of the sheet-like water absorbent layer, which are bonded to the top sheet. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a disposable absorbent article with improved absorbency and flexibility, while also reducing the amount of pulp fibers used in the absorbent layer.

Problems solved by technology

This disadvantageously results in leakage of the urine.

Embodiment Construction

[0014]In a disposable absorbent article according to the present invention, the bottom ends of the rising flaps are bonded to the top sheet corresponding to the water absorbent resin powder non-existing regions of the sheet-like water absorbent layer so that water absorbent resin powder existing region near the bottom ends of the respective rising flaps does not exist any more, and only the fiber assembly layers can exist near those. It is, therefore, possible to make effective use of the absorbing ability of the fiber assembly layer located near the bottom end of each rising flap even when the wearer is in the decubitus position, and thereby possible to ensure preventing leakage of urine at the time of excretion of the urine.

[0015]Furthermore, since the disposable absorbent article according to the present invention has a high absorbing performance, it is possible to suppress the backflow of the urine to a low level and keep the skin of the wearer clean without staining the skin, e...

Abstract

A disposable absorbent article 10 that includes an absorbent mat 13 between a liquid permeable top sheet 11 and a liquid impermeable back sheet 12, the absorbent mat 13 including a sheet-like water absorbent layer 15 that contains water absorbent resin powders 14 but that does not contain pulp fibers therein, and fiber assembly layers 17A and 17B each of which mainly consists of the pulp fibers 16, sequentially from the side of the top sheet 11, the sheet-like water absorbent layer 15 alternately including a plurality of water absorbent resin powder existing regions 15a, in each of which the water absorbent resin powders 14 are wrapped in two non-woven fabric sheets 20 and 21, and a plurality of water absorbent resin powder non-existing regions 15b, in each of which the water absorbent resin powders 14 are not wrapped in the two non-woven fabric sheets 20 and 21, in a width direction, wherein rising flaps 18 are provided on both sides of the sheet-like water absorbent layer 15, respectively. Bottom ends 18a of the rising flaps 18 are bonded to the top sheet 11 corresponding to the water absorbent resin powder non-existing regions 15b-1 and 15b-2 located on both lateral ends of the sheet-like water absorbent layer 15, respectively.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a disposable absorbent article such as a disposable diaper or disposable pants.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]As an improvement of a conventional technology (see Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 2002-224161 or a pamphlet of International Publication No. 01 / 89439), the applicant of the present application proposed a disposable absorbent article as explained below (Japanese Patent Application No. 2003-67287; Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 2004-275225). As shown in FIG. 5, the absorbent article includes an absorbent mat 3 between a liquid permeable top sheet 1 and a liquid impermeable back sheet 2. In addition, the absorbent article is characterized in that the absorbent mat 3 includes a sheet-like water absorbent layer 5, which contains water absorbent resin powders 4, but does not contain pulp fibers therein, and fiber assembly layers 7A and 7B that include the water absorbent resin powders 4 and the p...
